Spaces Between Silence And Pain
“Now i can finally break the silence
Since there is nothing going on between us
And i think it's not a secret anymore” Kudakwashe Roak Mutama
In the immortal words
of Kudakwashe Roak Mutama
we share again the spaces
between silence and pain...
these lines
are beauty in simplicity
distance is maintained
between the parting and the pain...
write more
with this concise purity
of focused thought
achieve poetic destiny...
Godspeed Kudakwashe
upon your journey...
Blessings upon your poetic
journey my brother...
Walk the roads ahead with head
held high in pride...
Thus we walk a common journey
in gifts imparted we abide...

I Will Keep In Touch
I will always keep in touch
though time flows fast between...
there are many spaces rough
between where you and I have been...
yet we share a common journey
told in heartbreak we have seen...
to inspire others we are never early
thus we share same vision seen...
we will take a walk; in wisdom bound together
that we our souls; may always be in touch...
we will share life’s lessons; this hard journey together
in hopes dreams; we will always be in touch...

Spread Your Words Upon The Water
as your words enrich the world
they enrich me also
as people read your words
and understanding grows
with empathy
they may embrace a better destiny
which in small ways
enriches our world
one day God may
smile upon us and say
'What you tried to do. It was good.'
the beauty of your words
is a pebble cast into the water
as the ripples spread and grow
may flow harmony and beauty
therefore spread your words upon the water

This Valentine's
This comes to you my valentine
I am so glad that you are now mine
Though things are not yet in line
I know that together we will be fine
We have been waiting for this time
When we would look each other in the eye
But now that the time has come
Please girl let us not be shy
This relationship is about us
Not about what they say
So come here into my arms
And let us celebrate this Valentine’s Day

Spirtual Ethics
'To take the life of self or another'
Never again a journey with sister or brother.
'To be the instigator of physical or mental pain'
A journey as the receiver of the act; time and time again.
'Those who cheat, lie or steal'
A journey of darkness never to see or reveal.
'The abusers of the earthly phsycial form'
A journey when they wished they were never born.
'Those who do not share their earthly treasure'
A journey spent in waiting in a time they cannot measure.
'Those who do wrong and believe it is right'
A long, long journey to see a heavenly sight.
'Those who misuse the gift of power'
A journey that will include an eternal hour.
'Those who fail to give thanks for the gifts of each'
The jorney delayed until some one can teach.
'Failure to offer free expression to God of a love deep within'
The journey will not contain a door for a new life to begin

STONES and THORNS
Are you bewildered?
Why do you walk on stones and thorns with bare feet?
Beloved, don’t you know lovers do not walk on feet?
They walk on love.
A lover’s journey is neither short nor long,
A lover’s journey is timeless…endless
A precious journey guided by a fervent heart

Our Journey
the journey is long
and inter-dimensional,
many who should
have walked it
have sold out,
forsaking
a radical
freshness
of mind,
you do not
walk
your
journey alone,
in an
interconnected world,
you need
never walk alone,
the hopes
aspirations
dreams
of many
flow with you
flow into you
feed you
sustain you
food of your though
feeds their hunger
feeds their love
feeds better beginnings

Silent Walk
My life is
my own journey.
The journey, in which
I am waiting for myself
To finally arrive
from all far away distances.
Still, I am happy to hear
my own silent walk
Even more than to look at
the roads on which I traveled.

Poetic justifications
Some might say they don't like it
But I say this is me
I write what i have been through
I share what I seen
This is no inbetween
I take you on the other side
Where the grass is not green
I take you on a journey where
people are forgot about
People are talked about
A lonely mans journey
Hope for atleast one person
To understand this story
With no glory or breaks
Just dead ends with rats and snakes
lively hoods and natural justice at stake
Self iflicted pain, while the poerty try's to explain
Real life situations, Through poetic justifications....

Detective and Criminal

mind soul birth expresses
philosophy principles
pertaining to matters

knowledge seen values
reason mind language
mysticism in arts

rational argument
or soul love of wisdom
ah wisdom told me
'Language is like
a detective
always way behind
a good criminal'
who is that smooth criminal?
where does this one walk tonight?
bound forth upon this night journey?

Journey Towards Light
Walking on the road, I realized something amiss
On turning my back I saw my shadow had disappeared
Leaving me all alone in my journey towards light;
I searched for my companion everywhere
But to my grief he got lost somewhere in darkness
Leaving me all alone in my journey towards light
I don’t know how to pursue my journey without him?
Scared enough to take a step ahead
But determined to achieve my goal I began to walk
Not caring for obstacles and darkness in my path.
After reaching at the end of dark tunnel
I saw a ray of light
My happiness knew no bounds
But there came a voice from somewhere
And it was of my companion shadow
He told me, “My friend your journey in light has just begun
Keep following your path towards wisdom and you shall
Achieve your goal”.
Indeed he was right.
My journey towards light has just begun and
It’s a Long way before I reach my destination.
A Journey Of A Poet
A journey begins with
A thought in our mind
Words are chosen and formed.
Lines of poem
Well Written with meanings
With words of emotions and expressions
A poet starts with
An inspiration of mind,
An aspiration in soul mind
With reflection
On our life experience
We start to
Compose some
Wonderful poetry
Expressing our innermost thoughts
With deep contemplation
To put them in poetry words
A journey begins when
A poet takes his imagination
To a place where
No one ever dream or imagine before.
A poet's journey ends by
Writing another lovely poem
And deep reflection
A poet remains
As a poet
When he or she
Continue to
Write and Share
lovely poems with the world.

I Swear By The Journey
I swear by the journey,
As I walk,
Emotions get to talk,
My guts by virtue get to be bold,
As I sing,
The voice will be heard by all swings,
I swear by the journey,
As I fly,
Then I will stand and rely,
As I love,
I will hold and cherish the havenly dove,
As I smile,
I know my living days are granted another mile,
I!
Swear!
By!
The!
Journey!
As I fall,
I will get up again and kick the ball,
As I stand,
Firm I get, because I do not depend,
As I feel the pain,
efforts will never the less get a slain,
As I write,
The journey of benediction gets even more bright,
As I live,
In God, once more I get to believe,
As life goes on
My happiness goes on and on

Destiny...
Descendant of eternity, seeker of truth,
The lies of the past ever present,
My devine right to walk this path,
Yet surrounded by fear and doubt,
My sword of surrender held high,
Todays pain a journey to overcome,
Is there a reason for this change?
Or is change my reason to exist?
The scythe of death shall judge us all,
Always alone yet for ever defended,
Where on my journey shall I meet death?
For what comes next could be peace eternal,
I am the only obstacle to my destiny...
Spread the love... The peace will follow...

Artistic Consummations Unending
Man when it comes to romance
commitment to long term courtship
speak not of rocking artistic me;
and my constant consistent courtship
with my dated loose laying poetry.
In more than twenty
predominantly neglected years
I’ve never been through them all;
caught up with my neglected years
my dated draft diary entries.
I’ve got so many
loose lines lines lines
hanging heavy in my restless head;
I can never get them lines
all laid down right.
There’s too many
to save, for, a rainy day.
Multiple droplets; in their hundreds trillions;
adorn, all objects; visible on rainy days.
Hang from, transformed, rain dewed trees.
But even when the sun is still shining.
I’m still two timing, multiple poetic pieces.
I’m still too time starved; for catch up poetic binding.
I’m afraid I’m never, going to get written pieces,
through; to that last eternally unwritten line.
Hanging out waiting around for me
in expectation, of artistically, desired pick up.
When will such a courtship; finally end?
When the muse may, no longer, dances up,
her dazzling; or simplistic lines entwining me.
When I’m too tired to write my nights
my days, my artistic life, poetically away.
Then poetry will find; another poet to daze;
for days, for nights; to artistic life write away.
Then poetry will find, another poet, to courtship bard.

Love reunited
A long journey passing in this two love
individual, the essence that has been gone
for a long time to be with someone who
truly love.
The passing time moves in a different way,
the long rocky road, the wave of every journey
the process of learning of things happening around
control and uncontrol by itself. the distance,
the substance, the destiny belong by its journey
that they travel, a long experience to
determine the genuine feeling to someone
that never been change, that never been forgotten,
that never been lost in every step of the way
turning and circling of time.
Every journey it takes that gives meaning
to grow, to become, to recognize the details,
to value the implication of things in the past,
the present and in the future ahead of life.
'Till we meet again, to start a new, to live with you
in a satisfying love and meaning of a good life.
I will embrace the beauty of this journey
of a TRUE LOVE.

In Silence
We talk in silence
We speak in exchanging breath
We argue in silence
We battle with our stare
We think in silence
We travel in our mind
We promise in silence
We create the secret better
We sing in silence
We smile in radiant melody
We enjoy in silence
We move with our body
We share in silence
We stay in each other arms
We love in silence
We grow the hope of warmth
We hate in silence
We shake in every fiber being
We pray in silence
We enchant the words in heart
We long in silence
We drown in loneliness
We break in silence
We flow soundless tears
We walk in silence
We tell our story in footprint
We listen in silence
We could hear numerous voices
